スペインの通信エリア

スペイン の数値が意味すること

重要な数値は2つあり、どの会社も引用するのはそのうち1つだけです。一般的な速度は79 Mbps。調子のいいときがどれくらいかを示す数字です。

読む価値があるのは10パーセンタイル、23 Mbpsのほうです。駅の上の基地局が混み合い、周りの全員が同じ電波につながっている、その日の下位1割のときの速度です。中央値が高くて下限が低い国は、本当に必要になるその瞬間まではみごとに動く国だということです。

ビデオ通話やテザリングが欠かせない旅なら、一般的な速度ではなく混雑時の数値を基準に計画してください。

スペインで回線が混んだときに起きること

混雑は故障ではなく、火曜の夜です。問題は、そのときeSIMに何ができるかで、たいていの旅行用eSIMの答えは「何もできない」です。国ごとに卸契約が1つ、ネットワークが1つ、路上に立ったまま他社のeSIMをもう1枚買う以外に逃げ道がありません。

ここではOrbisloの通信はMovistar、Orangeを通ります。いま乗っているネットワークが劣化したら、旅行の途中でも、お客様が頼まなくても別の回線へ移します。そのときに邪魔をするのではなく、あとからお知らせします。

スペインの携帯キャリア

• Market share: Spain had 63.24 million mobile lines in June 2026, or 127.6 per 100 inhabitants. Movistar, Vodafone and MasOrange held 85.5 percent of them, rising to 98.1 percent with Digi, according to the competition and markets regulator CNMC.
• MasOrange: The European Commission approved the Orange and MasMovil joint venture with conditions on 20 February 2024, finding that it would create Spain's largest operator by customer numbers. Before the deal MasMovil relied on national roaming on Orange where its own network did not reach.
• Digi: To clear the MasOrange merger, MasMovil spectrum at 1800 MHz, 2100 MHz and 3.5 GHz went to Digi, then Spain's largest virtual operator, so it could build its own network, together with an optional national roaming deal for areas that network does not reach.

スペインの旧世代ネットワーク

• In December 2025 the digital transformation ministry opened a consultation on retiring 2G and 3G, to set switch off calendars by operator and technology and to guarantee that calls to 112 keep working. It closed on 20 January 2026.
• The 2G and 3G switch off frees spectrum mainly in the 900 MHz and 2100 MHz bands for 4G and 5G. The ministry singled out eCall in cars, alarms, lifts and tracking devices as services that need migrating first.
• Vodafone Spain began switching off 3G in stages in 2022, and by the end of 2024 it was gone in the main cities and metropolitan areas such as Madrid and Barcelona. A device that relies on 3G alone can no longer connect there.
• The Canary Islands used European 112 Day in February 2026 to warn about possible failures reaching 112 after 2G and 3G networks close, a risk for older phones and devices that still depend on those networks.

スペインの5G

• The auction of 200 MHz in the 3.6 to 3.8 GHz band under Order ETU/531/2018, for 5G took 34 rounds and raised 437.65 million euros in bids, more than four times the reserve price.
• Telefónica, Vodafone and Orange applied to bid in the 700 MHz auction that began in July 2021, after the band was cleared of digital terrestrial television during 2020. The auction offered 75 MHz in seven national licences, capped at 2 x 15 MHz of paired 700 MHz spectrum per operator.
• The December 2022 auction of the 26 GHz band raised 36.2 million euros: Telefónica, Vodafone and Orange took 1,800 MHz of the 2,400 MHz offered nationally, on 20 year licences renewable once.
• The government's 2025 broadband coverage report, published in May 2026, puts 5G coverage at 99.27 percent of the population and above 96 percent in rural areas. Standalone 5G reaches 98.1 percent, and the 3.5 GHz band 89.99 percent.
• 5G carried 23 percent of Spain's mobile data traffic in the first quarter of 2026, after growing 54.2 percent in a year, while total mobile broadband traffic rose 17.8 percent to 2.7 million terabytes.

スペインのネットワークについて

• The October 2024 DANA floods and the 28 April 2025 Iberian power blackout both caused significant interruptions to Spanish telecom services. A draft royal decree would require operators to prepare contingency plans for such incidents and keep calls to 112 working.
• Under the draft resilience decree, certain network infrastructure would need enough backup power to keep running for several hours during a blackout, with protocols to prioritise some kinds of traffic in a crisis.
